The Jaguars steamrolled the Chargers 35–6, showcasing the kind of balance and intensity we hadn’t seen in weeks. A relentless pass rush held Justin Herbert to just 81 passing yards, while the run game took over—Travis Etienne and Tuten combining for nearly 150 yards and three touchdowns.
Trevor Lawrence added two more scores as the offense cruised without punting once.

The Jags snapped back in a major way, and fans were thrilled about the win.
“The game was a blowout, the Chargers thought they were going to win, and they didn’t,” a fan told News4JAX.
But not everyone’s jumping on the hype train just yet.
While some fans are speaking about Super Bowls and AFC championships, one fan News4JAX spoke with on Monday said it’s important to take things slow.
“They played good, but all these people are getting all excited, don’t get your hopes up, it’s only one game. They got about five more to go,” Mike Gillespie said.
Still, after the rollercoaster of the last few weeks, this kind of dominant win feels like a reset for Jacksonville.
The Jags are number 2 in the AFC South behind the Colts.
Their next test will be on the road against the Arizona Cardinals.
